In depth
Verdict
MOHAREB failed to get a clear run at Newcastle last time having won over 6f here before that. Equally effective over this longer trip, he gets another chance with Danny Tudhope taking over the reins. Royal Pleasure has been threatening to get his head in front though is closely matched with both Eagle Creek and Isola Rossa on latest running at Newcastle when French Rain finished further behind. Golden Force is another to consider having finished in front of The Attorney when runner-up at Leicester given the latter has subsequently won at the same track while La Maquina can be forgiven a recent below par effort on soft ground.
